would use. For example, the city of Toronto, Canada is transcribed in the
official book as "ma tomo Towano", not "ma tomo Tolonto".
Names for countries can be derived from the genitive case or the forms used to
refer to their country's people or language. For example, the native name for
Japan is pronounced "Nippon", but the one for Japanese people and the language
is "Nihonjin" and "Nihongo" respectively. The latter two are used to create the
unofficial word "Nijon". Similarly, the name for Sweden is "Wensa", derived from
"Svenska" ("Swedish").
A rule some people use is that, if the resulting unofficial word sounds exactly
like a native toki pona word, then the unofficial word is modified. For example,
the name "Mary" (from which "meli" is already derived from) is typically turned
into "jan Mewi" instead.
There are other rules, and interpretations of them differ. The "o kama sona e

## Colors
In toki pona, there are five basic color terms: "loje" (red), "jelo" (yellow),
"laso" (blue and green), "pimeja" (black) and "walo" (white).
These terms can be combined with each other, or words referring to natural
things, to form other shades:
> laso sewi -- blue ("sky green/blue")
> laso kasi -- green ("plant green/blue")
> loje jelo -- orange ("yellowish red")
> jelo pimeja -- brown ("dark yellow")
> walo pimeja -- gray ("dark white")
## Example sentences
> jan lili li pana e ko jaki tan monsi ona. -- The kid pooped himself.
> jan Simu o, mije li moli. -- He's dead, Jim.
> tomo ni li jo e jaki mute. ni li ike tawa mi a! -- This room is covered in
> gross materials. I don't like it!
> mije mi li unpa ala e jan ante. -- My husband doesn't have sex with other
> people.
## Comparative sentences
While there are words in toki pona for "good" or "bad", there is no "better" or
"worse". While there are words for "lots" and "little", there's no "more" or
"less".
To make a comparative statement, you instead split it into two:
> mi wawa. sina wawa lili. -- I am stronger than you. (I am strong.
> You are slightly strong.)
Of course, the degree of comparison can be adjusted by changing the difference
between the adjectives.
> mi wawa mute. sina wawa ala. -- I am way stronger than you. (I am very strong.
> You are weak.)
